  • Optional centered logo in QR codes (PNG, JPG, or WebP), with an illustrative preview in the creation form.
  • QR preview in a modal window.
  • Automatic page-title detection from a destination URL in the admin panel.
  • Admin dashboard with pagination and quick actions.

FAQ

What happens if I change the destination URL?

The public QR URL does not change. The QR redirects to the new destination URL.

Where are scans stored?

360 QR stores the scan counter and last scan timestamp in the WordPress database. The plugin does not store visitor IP addresses.

Do I need an external service to generate QR images?

No. QR images are generated locally using code included in the plugin.
